Day 175 ~ Create a tiny version of something that would normally be much bigger.

I started with a pea-sized ball of polymer clay. Squeezed tiny bits out for head, legs, tail, mane. I used a small clay tool, an Exacto knife and a pencil point to shape the clay and add details. I put him out in the sun to dry, but he needed to go in the oven and bake for a few minutes to harden correctly. He's standing on a penny. I might paint him, but liked the white and contrasting shadows for the photo.
